Day: September 26, 2024

Our next ParentEd session is scheduled for 16th October. The focus will be on Supporting Literacy at Home.

We’re looking for a few volunteers to help prepare and lead this session. If you’re willing, please let me know.

Good morning everyone,

Quick reminder that report comments (advisory for Grades 6-12 and academic for G12) are due to Proofreaders tomorrow. Please check Sunday’s bulletin for full guidance and proofreading trios.

Also, in the bulletin, I neglected to include information about the Subject Specific Skills mark for this report. Remember that on this report only, in addition to the ATL Skill marks, there is a Subject Specific Skills mark. Because there is no academic grade on this report, this mark gives an indication of how the student is doing in your class on the subject specific skills that you have been developing. As with all the marks, please ensure as a teaching team/department that you are interpreting those levels the same way across classes.

Thank you! Sara

Shout Out and Huge Thanks to Anna Guo, Amina, Allison, Ray and Qunisha for all of their work sorting and organising our reading resources. The Literacy Room is beginning to take shape, and still requires a little more work. This team will be off-class on Friday afternoon, from 12.00, to continue working on this.

As part of the process of sorting through the books, we have removed many books from the shelves. These are currently on the tables in The Hub.  These books will be available for teachers to ‘pick through’ and take to classrooms to supplement classroom libraries at the following times.

Thursday 3.15pm – Friday 1pm: Teachers visit the library and collect any books they want for their classrooms

Friday 1pm – 3pm All staff welcome to take any leftover books (these can be taken home)

Friday 3pm All remaining books will be removed

CMB Qixia Branch will CLOSE on October 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and OPEN on October 1, 5, 2024 during National Holiday.
